Yes those were my thoughts exactly, especially concerning the worship songs that we sing in churches and small gatherings. 99.9% of all modern contemporary worship songs are copyrighted, and churches and organizations must pay licensing fees to CCLI: http://www.ccli.com/ to project lyrics to such works. We have recently started a website: http://ccworshiparchive.googlepages.com in hopes to find worship songs written under Creative Commons license, in hopes to provide an alternative to commercially driven worship songs that are ever so pupular among our churches today. “So what about Christian music?”

I also wrote a post recently at presbymergent.org challenging/encouraging Emerging Church authors to license some of their books through creative commons in addition to traditional publishing venues. We (Christians) do seem to be a rather possessive lot, don't we? I wonder why that is, when the thing we celebrate most (especially this time of year) is a gift freely given to all by the original Creator of all things.

Sadly, you do also hear tales of people being very defensive with their music, and not willing to share even on a limited basis. As ever, Christians are lagging behind this development.
